Driving Lessons

Valkyrie huffed, sitting in Skulduggery's stylish Bentley as he swerved dangerously across the dusted road.

"What's up Val?" Skulduggery asked slowly not taking his eyes away from the road. He had a pretty good idea of what was up with Valkyrie.

"You know what." She moaned.

Skulduggery sighed and slowed the car down and parked in a lay-by next to the woods.

"We've discussed this. You are not going to drive my dear Bentley...you're not even seventeen yet." He mused.

Valkyrie shrugged, "C'mon Skulduggery." She gave him the big, puppy dog eyes. Skulduggery didn't turn to her, for he knew he couldn't say no to those eyes. Damn Valkyrie! He thought.

"I tell you what. How about my yellow car?"

Valkyrie's jaw dropped and her eyebrows came far up her forehead. "The Canary Car? You're kidding me? I am not going to have my first drive in that car!" She protested.

"Your first drive? Remember the white van? Remember the disaster you made. God, I'm not sending you out to Kenspeckle tonight, he would defiantly find some spell or miracle to bring me back to the grave." He chuckled darkly.

Valkyrie crossed her arms. "I was twelve then, and I was trying not to get killed!"

"More like committing suicide." Skulduggery grumbled.

Valkyrie punched him in the arm, "That's it. I'll just asked Ghastly then."

"He won't let you though, I've told him the story." Skulduggery had a smile in his voice.

Valkyrie stared daggers at him.

Skulduggery sighed, "Okay, might as well get a driving lesson from the most brillaint and most skillful driving in the world."

"Ha, don't make me laugh. I'm only doing it with you because you've got an amzing car and you're a big push over."

I'm flattered," Skulduggery said sarcastically.

"Watch it...now...MIND THAT TREE!"

Skulduggery should never had agreed to this. But luckily he had a trick up his sleeve.

As Valkyrie, death deviantly, narrowingly, missed the tree trucks on the edges of the round, Skulduggery pressed a button by the gear stick. Suddenly, valkyrie's hands were spun off the steering wheel as the steering wheel steered the car safely back in the centre of the road.

"What on Earth..?" Valkyrie tried to contain contol over the car. But Skulduggery sat back in the passenger seat, body language relax and placed his gloved side behind his head.

Valkyrie gaped at him.

"The whole time! The whole time...you didn't mention it had auto drive?"

Skulduggery shrugged. "I only use it when an annoying person begs me to teach them to drive and if they are VERY bad at it and could wreck my car in any time!"

"Great!" valkyrie slouched back. Watching the wheel turn itself and the car drove back onto tarmac.

"Swap seats?" Skulduggery asked. Already out of the car to resume his car seat.

Valkyrie grumbled out of it and kickd the car's side as she walked to the over side.

As she came in Skulduggery started the engine and raised a gloved finger to him. "That, Miss cain, wasn't very nice. What has the car ever done to you?"

"I could kick you if you would like?"

"Now, now. Don't get hasty, the mountin air has certainly taken effect over your brain. You love me really."

"I hate you."

Hope you liked that, just something i thought of as i was in the car with my sister. Got another car based story up next.

Thanks for your R&R's so far. Keep them up!
